Some notes to help you pick your base plate:

- Base Plate -  This is our newest base plate. If you have sensitive skin, prefer less blade feel, have fine hair or just enjoy a mild shave, this is the one. Head shavers have enjoyed this one. This plate has our least blade exposure and a .71mm blade gap.

Original Base Plate -  This was our original configuration when we first launched, this base plate has blade feel with blade exposure. It’s still my personal favorite and has a .68mm blade gap with positive blade exposure. This design offers a lot of user control, for a milder shave, you can change the angle or “ride the cap” for sensitive parts like the neck. For other areas, you can still have a good amount of efficiency.

+ Base Plate -  We reduced the blade exposure and increased the gap to .88mm. This is a nice option if you only shave every 2-3 days, as the larger gap allows for good efficiency and lather flow. A good option if you prefer less blade exposure, but enjoy the efficiency of a larger gap.

++ Base Plate -  This one is for those who like a very efficient, yet smooth option. This plate is still with positive blade exposure, but has less exposure than the + Base Plate. This razor has a larger 1.08mm gap. If you have thick hair and shave every 4-5 days or just like an efficient razor, this would be the one.

Excellent experience! I ordered the Cx316 razor with the plus plate which is beautiful but for me (YMMV) was a tad too aggressive and maybe blade forward or positive, so I decided to buy this .71 mild - plate and it did not disappoint! For me, this is the best combination of efficiency and smoothness. No issues and a great shave all around. Love the look and feel of this razor. The customer service from Sean was responsive and shipping was super fast and neatly packaged. If you get a chance to get the Damascus shave soap it’s next level as well. Overall a 5 star company to deal with. Highly recommend adding a Carbon razor to your shave den.

Best used for two or three day growth - very efficient

I've used the + plate a few times to date - I would classify it between mild and medium. Once does have to be careful when using it - the first time around I did end up with a nick on my lower lip; all the subsequent shaves were without incident. However, because it is fairly efficient in removing hair, one does not have to go over the main trouble spots several times. I made the mistake of doing that and it resulted in a mild razor burn - lessons learnt that it only takes a single pass (or two) to remove all of the stubble and you're rewarded with a smooth comfortable shave.
My preference between the minus plate and the plus plate is clearly the minus plate for daily shaving. The plus plate is very useful for when you haven't shaved for a day or two and need to remove two day growth efficiently. I like that the plate has large holes, so that all of the shaving lather does not clog up the razor and it is very easy to keep clean.
